UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

hey guys, got the polo rolling roaded on saturday at star performance,
it was with seat enthusiasts, most of the seats i saw on the rollers were getting 200+bhp so was a bit red faced to put the little polo on. was well chuffed with my results which were 140.5bhp and the torque was 113lbf-ft.
the torque was not to good but it is due to having the polo de-catted and not enough back pressure.

What mods have you done to the engine?

yes yes do tell what mods u have.....

got a cold air intake stright from the tb and the filter sits right behind the left fog lamp. and a full system with the cat and the middle box out, so just a stright though pipe till the back box.

I fancy that exhaust business, how much did it cost?

well the back box i bought off my mate for £60 and i de-catted it my self.
but i had the same idea on my clio before the polo the full system with the de-cat and it cost £300 from power flow.

but if you de cat you wouldnt pass MOT right?>

yeh your right. but it aint to hard to put the cat back in for the Mot then just take it out again.

good increase in BHP you have with very few mods! very cool!

any plans to get a few more horses?

Thats really good like. Mines has td performance chip and has a k&n induction kit with three cold air feeds to it a remus backbox and straight through centre section cat still on. Mines should be roughly about the same. Will have to get it on the rolling road to see what its putting out.

any plans to get a few more horses?

i do but its not for the Gti engine. starting to save the pennys for 1.8t..
a long time to save but its going to be worth it.
